SWOT EVALUATION
This is the evaluation of our original SWOT analysis.
INTERNSHIP Strengths
A strength is an internal factor that benefits the internship/program. •
Quality Products This season, Studio One gave the interns the opportunity to attend the Fargo Business Day. The students were able to meet people in the professional field, while exploring and getting to know all different kinds of jobs.
•
Networking Studio One has a lot of connections to previous interns, who are now working in the professional field. In addition to this, a lot of alumni came back to watch live shows, gave tips on how to improve, and provided current interns with the opportunity to build connections to different career fields.
•
Diversity of Interns − Due to the high diversity at Studio One, the audiences at the live shows included people from a lot of different surroundings and areas.
Weaknesses
Weaknesses in a SWOT analysis are qualities that prevent organizations from accomplishing their full potential, goals or objectives. To be a weakness the quality can be controlled by the organization. •
Hard to market to freshmen − Due to the University making freshmen live in the dorms, we were able to market to a younger audience creating a greater chance to receive more applications. This semester, 7* freshmen decided to apply for Studio One. − *(7 students graduating in May 2019).
•
Budget − Due to a limited budget, we shaved expenses, such as having an internal photographer for
group pictures, limiting the number of oatmeal crème pies we gave out, and limiting printed materials.
•
Intimidation − Studio One interns have been able to inform students about the possibilities, benefits, and positions at Studio One, decreasing the idea of intimidation by encouraging them to look into an internship.
6
Opportunities
An opportunity is defined as an external element that an organization does not have control over but can have a positive impact on the program. •
Fargo Business Day − Season 56 allowed 12 of the interns to attend Faro Business Day, where they had the opportunity to tour four different companies in Fargo, ND including Discovery Benefits, Flint Communications, Media Productions, and WDAY. This provided interns insight into the job market and what employers are looking for when hiring graduates.
•
Faculty Support − Strong support for Studio One among faculty members allowed interns to reach a wider audience when marketing the program to students. Thirty-four classroom presentations were given throughout fall semester.
•
Alumni Network − A long history of Studio One alums of over 1,000 provides connections to be made for current interns to get a foot into the professional field. These alums continue to show their support for the program by attending the show and providing opportunities for students to tour their work facilities.
Threats
A threat is defined as an external issue that an organization does not have control over. •
Budget
•
Class Schedules − An increase in professors having classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays has made it more difficult for prospective interns to be able to fit Studio One into their schedules. The time frame that students receive a position at Studio One is effective as it gives students the ability to work out their schedules.
•
Other internship programs − There are other internship programs that compete for students across campus. Our advertisements around campus, classroom presentations, radio announcements, and booths at different locations around campus helped Studio One stand out to get the word out about the internship program.
A decreased budget made it more difficult to get resources that aid in promoting the show. To compensate for this shortage in funding interns went to local businesses to ask for donations that would serve as prizes to give away at booths and presentations.

SHOW Strengths •
•
•
Audience Experience This fall we had two friends and family days, the Women’s Hockey Team, a surprise birthday party for Barry and consistently invited people that were familiar with the guest on that weeks show. The tours guides became comfortable and confident with their parts in order to give the audience members an excellent experience. Guest Appearances We had a broad range of guests that brought diverse content to our show this season. We had Lieutenant Don Rasmuson speak on our show about the subject of stalking as well as Cameron Jaxheimer to talk about his experience on the UND Aerobatics Team. Additionally, we had one demo where a manager and student from Marco’s Pizza came in and showed the audience how to make a pepperoni pizza. Student Cast and Crew − Having UND students produce the show allowed us to cover a lot of content relating to the university. It gave student interns the opportunity to interact people on or off of campus.
Weaknesses •
Website − The website remained similar to its usual format and not as many updates were done as we would have hoped in order to give it a more modern look.
•
Limited content − Every semester our funds are limited, but because of this we really have to sit down and brainstorm different ideas to market for Studio One. This makes the process more creative and our ideas even better.
•
Tour starting upstairs − The tour starting upstairs seemed to confuse some audience members, but it always ended up running smoothly.
Opportunities • •
Kelsey Erickson − Utilizing Kelsey allowed us to get more posters, tickets, and other materials out faster. Social Media − We had the opportunity to put our stories out on social media to give more viewers the chance to see our segments. Adding a new social media, Periscope, helped show 8
a more fun, in-depth look to what we do behind the scenes on show day. UND staff chat • •
Individual stories for the website − We also posted our video segments on our website to get the chance to reach more viewers as well. New cameras − The news team received new cameras that helped them create high quality news packages.
Threats •
Inability to monitor viewers − We are unable to monitor the number of people who view our show each week. This prevents us from setting rating goals and attracting underwriters. • Location − We’re farther away from central campus and it may be hard for guests and audience members to find the studio. • Weather − During the winter months, conditions might make it difficult for people to attend our show or for interns to get to the studio. • Time of tour − The time of the tour is at 4:30pm. People attending the show may just be getting off work or done with class and not make it in time for the tour. • Construction − The construction on the north side of Skalicky decreases parking and another entrance for interns and guests that attend the show.

Internal Competition The marketing team competition was established to encourage all Studio One interns to help with recruitment and increase communication between all of the teams. All of the interns were divided up into two teams; the pink team and the green team. The goal was for each intern to earn points for their team. The team with the most points would win an end of the season pizza party. The way an intern could win points was by volunteering at a booth, speaking at a classroom presentation, nominating someone for the internship, wearing the Studio One shirt on t-shirt days, participation in recruitment events, inviting guests to the show, and participating in the weekly internal newsletter games. It was a great way to strengthen the internal bonds between the teams. It also helped the marketing team with the recruitment of the internship and the program. The winner for season 56 was the green team.

E-News Stories Top 5 Questions to Ask Your Interviewer in an Interview By: Peter Monsrud
Many new college graduates looking for jobs often overlook one of the most important aspects of a job interview: asking questions. We get so stressed over preparing how to answer questions that we forget to prepare our own to ask the interviewer. It’s important to ask questions because it allows you to confirm or expand upon your qualifications for the position. Also, it offers insight into the work environment for that organization. Through my experience and with some expert help, here are my top 5 questions to ask your interviewer in an interview. 1.
What is your favorite part about working for this company?
This question lets you know how satisfied people are with their jobs and to see if you’re a good fit. If the interviewer is hard pressed to come up with an answer, that’s a red flag and you might not want to work for that company. 2. What sort of skills and characteristics do you feel are the most important to succeed in the position? This question allows you an opportunity to ask what qualities and experience the organization is looking for in a candidate without directly asking. Based on the answers the interviewer gives, you are able to follow up with more examples of how
19
you fit the mold for what they’re looking for. In the initial interview, you may have missed the opportunity to explain skills you didn’t know were important until you asked. 3. Upon being hired, what is the most important thing to accomplish within the first 90 days? This question informs you what the burning needs and desires are for the organization. After hearing the response, you can follow up with specific examples of how your skills and experiences will help you be successful in tackling the issue. This question also shows what would be expected of you upon being hired. 4. What are the top strategic priorities for the organization in the short and long-term? If you understand the strategic priorities of a company, it lets you know the direction they’re headed in the future. Based on the answer, you’ll know whether the company is thriving and looking to grow, or if it’s crumbling and trying to save their business. 5.
How would you describe your management style?
It’s important to know the management style of the boss because you want to enjoy going to work every day instead of dreading it. Work shouldn’t feel like work, it should be fun. You’ll be happier and ultimately more productive in an environment you love being a part of. These questions are my top five. They will show the employer you’re naturally curious, that you care about the position, and that you took time to do your research and prepare for the interview. Remember, an interview is more than employers asking you questions, it’s about having a conversation and understanding if you’re a good fit in the organization.

A Girl with a Passion by Tanja Eisenschmid
It’s a normal Tuesday morning. Averi has to go to class, but also needs to work on a news story. “I guess I’ll have to do it after,” she thinks. Hurrying out of class, Averi runs to Studio One to meet with Kaylee and the other interns to go over the live show content that has to be completed by Thursday. After that, there is just enough time to do homework that’s due Wednesday morning. Where did the time for hanging out with friends go?
But that’s not how Averi remembers her college career. “No matter how stressful it can be, Studio One is worth it. I promise. Enjoy the program and the mentors you have. They're awfully wonderful, I can tell you that first hand.” Ever since junior year of high school, this Apple Valley, Minn. native had a plan of what she wanted to do with her life, so her decision to major in communications and minor in political science at the University of North Dakota was an easy choice. Averi Haugesag was one of many very talented interns at Studio One. In her time at UND’s live television show she worked as a news anchor, co-anchor, assistant news director, assistant producer, video journalist, assistant director, and camera operator.
21
Besides interning with Studio One, Averi got a lot of experience from a lot of other internships that she did throughout her college career. The fact that she knew exactly what her goal was after college made it easy for her to get a lot of experience right away. She learned from Internet Broadcasting in St. Paul, Minnesota, where she created online content for 90+ ABC/NBC affiliates. She worked with the UND Athletics Department where she created highlight tapes and other content for their website. And she also interned at the Grand Forks Herald as a news and feature reporter.
All of these experiences got her where she is today. Monte Koshel, a Studio One staff member, informed her about a job opening at KXMB News in Bismarck, North Dakota. Monte and her current boss, Tom Gerhart, knew one another from UND. This shows just how important and advantageous networking is.
22
Since starting in June, Averi covers health, crime, and agriculture. And even though she says that it’s a “pretty strange mix”, she loves what she does. She offers some advice for students that want to go into the broadcast journalism field: “Don't be afraid to take a job in a city you would have never expected to live in. Never thought I'd stay in North Dakota after college, but here I am.” Studio One played a huge role in Averi’s development as a news reporter. The things she learned about broadcasting, she can’t seem to put into words. “I don’t even know where to begin on how well Studio One prepared me for this job. Honestly, I feel as though I was beyond prepared.” Not only did UND’s television show develop her work skills, but also her personality. “I think what I appreciate most is that I’m incredibly self-sufficient.” By that she means that nobody has to show her the basics, like editing and shooting a video or how to conduct an interview because Studio One made sure she knew all of that. So, how would she describe her internship at Studio One? “Irreplaceable. The skills you will retain during your internship are skills you can utilize in any profession, or any industry.” Studio One is a very unique internship, where students learn how to be professional, how to manage their time, how to meet deadlines, and how to develop
23
their personal skills. Averi is thankful for her seven semesters at Studio One, and that she got the chance to develop herself with the help from the staff members. Every day, Averi continues to grow as a reporter and person. When asked where she sees herself in 10 years, her answer is that she doesn’t know but with a smile on her face she says, “but hey, that's what I love about being a news reporter!”

Studio One alum receives Sioux Award for Young Alumni Achievement by Peter Monsrud Kayla Effertz-Kleven’s path to success began while attending college at the University of North Dakota. She was highly involved on campus in many different organizations. One of those organizations was Studio One. “Studio One reinforced that it’s important to always put your best foot forward,” said Effertz-Kleven. “That means your clothing, your attitude and the quality of work.”
Kayla Effertz-Kleven is in the back row, second from the left.
Unlike many college students, Kayla had a clear vision for her career path while in school. “I wanted to work out of state for 3-5 years in a private corporation, and then come back to North Dakota to get my master’s degree and work in a smaller PR/marketing firm,” said Effertz-Kleven. However, she had no idea where her vision would actually lead her. Upon graduation, Kayla faced a tough decision between choosing a secure, full-time job at Cargill or an internship at the health department in Washington D.C. She decided to follow her gut and chose the internship. Kayla said, “The internship interview at the health department was only a phone interview, but I could tell they wanted to nurture my desire to learn as much as possible.” Her decision was difficult, but it placed her on a path to where she is today. Effertz-Kleven currently works on the staff for North Dakota governor Jack Darlymple. She’s the Senior Policy Advisor for Education and Agriculture, two of the state’s most important issues. Kayla says working on the governor’s staff is “Exciting… every day is something different. I have the opportunity to learn something and if I don’t, it’s my own fault for slacking.”
25
Her natural curiosity to learn is a prevalent part of her personality. In college she admits she “over-committed” herself. However, that never stopped her from learning or finishing a task at hand. “I took on too many activities the semester I was involved with Studio One. [But], I learned to manage my time, and that even if you have overcommitted yourself, you still have a responsibility to finish what you start.” This year, Effertz-Kleven was presented with the Sioux Award for Young Alumni Achievement. She’s one of 30 people to receive the award since its creation in 2002. Kayla is now a member of an elite group of University of North Dakota alumni that includes Minnesota Twins President Dave St. Peter and astronaut Karen Nyberg. Kayla is successful because she has a desire to learn. She attributes her success to working hard and asking questions. She says, “Put your ego aside and admit you don’t know— and ask the questions to learn more.” That’s advice that’s applicable to anybody in any career.

Student Athlete Internships by Tanja Eisenschmid It is not always easy to be a student athlete. Not only do you have to take care of your homework but also make sure that your performance on the field doesn’t slack. The biggest problem: current employers are looking for employees who have a lot of experience, and there is no way student athletes can fit an internship in their busy schedule.
This is the biggest myth in college athletics. Whether you have ten football games, or you have 40 hockey games, there is always room for an internship. A very good example is myself. I have been on the UND women’s hockey team for three and a half years now, and my schedule does not allow me to do everything I would like to do, which can be challenging because even having a two-hour long movie night with friends falls short at times. The key: You have to make sacrifices if you want to reach something. It is a known fact that employers these days prefer people who have experience to people who don’t, so getting some experience while in college is significant. Though, many athletes claim, “don’t you learn the same things just by being on a team, as you would when working with a team at a job?” The answer is no. Here are the top three reasons of why it is beneficial for athletes to complete an internship: • • •
Increase of your professional network: This gives you a better opportunity to get a job that you enjoy after college. Involvement besides sports: This helps you find out what job you want to pursue after you graduate. Have professional goals: Being able to show professional and athletic goals will separate you from other applicants, which gives you a huge advantage.
27
If you have an internship and are an athlete at the same time you have to have better time management, and be able to effectively communicate with people. These two things, plus having the urge and passion to get experience show that it is definitely possible to do both at the same time. So, for all the student athletes out there who would really want to get some experience but are unsure of whether or not their schedule allows an internship: Making some room for an internship in college will do nothing but benefit you. The experience you get in addition to what you learn by being on a team is something very unique, and will help you significantly for the rest of your work career and personal life.

INTERNAL NEWSLETTER Every week, three members of the marketing team, Kelsey Erickson, Haley Steinwand, Natalie Steinwand, and Ashley Carlson designed and distributed an internal newsletter titled, Beyond the Headlines. The newsletter was a great way to keep interns and staff updated on Studio One news, events, and information. Beyond the Headlines included internal competition scores, recognition of excellence winners, upcoming events, and a variety of other information. The newest addition to the internal newsletter was the spotlight on staff members and teams, and the games interns could complete to earn more points for the internal competition. These were added to help the staff and interns become more familiar with one another, and to increase the popularity of Beyond the Headlines. Having a weekly newsletter helped keep everyone at Studio One up to date and on the same page when it came to vital, and not so vital, information.

Graphics
While creating promotional graphics, we wanted to use a personal approach to inform people of the deadline of Studio One. We used pictures of interns and their personal goals to attract student’s attention by noticing familiar faces while walking in the hallways. Also, we wanted to keep consistency with table tents, coffee sleeves along with show tickets to generate a recognizable image/message.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features benefits of wasps and a 3-D printing business This week on Studio One, learn why there is an abundance of wasps this time of year. Also, a man helps student entrepreneurs make their ideas into tangible items.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Wasps are more prevalent in the fall than any other time of year. Rebecca Simmons, associate professor of biology at UND, says “Not only are there more of them but they become more aggressive because there is less food, and they’re hunting for food in our garbage, your soda and everywhere they can find.” She says that traps using simple household products like sugar water and a plastic bottle are an easy way to keep wasps away. However, there is a benefit to having them around. “If you lose your wasp population, you tend to have an outbreak of maybe another kind of insect that we find even less desirable.” Jonathan Puhl, co-owner of 3C Innovators, is using 3-D printing to bring students’ visions to life by making prototypes of their inventions. His driving force is to help young entrepreneurs envision, explore, and create their ideas. He believes students are the forefront of innovation, and he wants to help them push the limits of technology. Puhl says, “If you ask most students they will say their favorite curriculum in school is either gym or art, or anything that they can get their hands on and make something. We want to integrate this idea with all their studies so that students can enjoy and optimize their learning experience in every classroom.” Studio One is an award-winning news and information program produced at the University of North Dakota Television Center. -30Connect with Studio One Contact: Stephanie Flyger, Studio One Director of Marketing, UND: (701) 777-4345 or stephanie.flyger@UND.edu Tori Pappenfus, Studio One Marketing Team, UND: (701) 777-4346 or victoria.pappenfus@my.UND.edu Area television markets and play times: Bismarck-Mandan, N.D. - 5 p.m. Mondays on Channel 12 Brandon and Winnipeg, Manitoba – 6 a.m. – Saturdays on Prairie Public Colorado Spring, Colo. - 5 p.m. Fridays, 4 p.m. Saturdays and 7 p.m. Sundays on Cable Channel 19 Denver, Colo. - 11 a.m. Mondays on Channel 57 Dickinson, N.D. - 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Mondays on Channel 18 Fargo, N.D. – 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays, 2 p.m. Thursdays on Channel 99 Grand Forks, N.D.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a nationwide athletic program and a feminist advocate This week on Studio One, learn how coaches are helping boys become men. Also, Dr. Berg Burin explains how feminism has evolved into what it is today.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Many schools around the country have implemented a program called Coaching Boys into Men, or CBIM. Once a week meetings cover everything from healthy relationships and integrity to respect and personal experience. Bill Lorenz, the head coach at Central High School in Grand Forks, ND, said, “If we only teach these kids the x’s and o’s then we’re not doing our job. We want to teach them to become better people after they leave our program.” The goal is to show how mistakes can be costly, even at the professional level. The coaches hope what they learn goes far beyond final game of season. Dr. Nikki Berg Burin is the advisor for the University of North Dakota’s Third Wave Feminism Student Organization, which focuses on the concerns of all oppressed groups. The UND group addresses inequality based on gender and sexuality, as well as socioeconomic inequity, racial and ethnic discrimination, and bias against those with physical and mental disabilities. Beyond advising this student-led group, Dr. Berg Burin strongly identifies herself as an active feminist. She stated, “I feel it’s important as a feminist to have an ideology, but also to act on it. For me, it’s just a way for life, so when I have an opportunity to speak or try to make change I will. I use my voice, and I notice in my local activism that not a lot of people do that. If you do, you can really have an influence.” Studio One is an award-winning news and information program produced at the University of North Dakota Television Center. -30Connect with Studio One Contact: Stephanie Flyger, Studio One Director of Marketing, UND: (701) 777-4345 or stephanie.flyger@UND.edu Tori Pappenfus, Studio One Marketing Team, UND: (701) 777-4346 or victoria.pappenfus@my.UND.edu Area television markets and play times: Bismarck-Mandan, N.D. - 5 p.m. Mondays on Channel 12 Brandon and Winnipeg, Manitoba – 6 a.m. – Saturdays on Prairie Public Colorado Spring, Colo. - 5 p.m. Fridays, 4 p.m. Saturdays and 7 p.m. Sundays on Cable Channel 19 Denver, Colo. - 11 a.m. Mondays on Channel 57 Dickinson, N.D. - 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Mondays on Channel 18 Fargo, N.D. – 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays, 2 p.m. Thursdays on Channel 99 Grand Forks, N.D.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features one man’s bee hobby and a new apparel line This week on Studio One, learn why winter is a threat to bees. Also, discover how one man combined his passions to create an apparel line. GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Most people stay away from bees, but Paul Knight can’t get enough of them. His hobby of beekeeping is crucial this time of year as the bees are beginning to prepare for winter. “They collect nectar and pollen in a honeycomb and create honey. This is what they will eat throughout the winter,” explained Knight. Winters in North Dakota are harsh and thus honeybees’ health is important. Honey is a nutritious product, which is why the bees need enough honey to last them through the hard winter. Nick Thompson has always had a passion for three things: entrepreneurship, clothes, and design. He decided to bring all three together and created what is now Hatchet apparel. Nick explains that he wants his line to be intriguing to everybody. “One unique thing about Hatchet apparel is that it is really what the consumer makes out of it,” he said. Nick says that he loves it when he’s walking down the street or into a coffee shop and sees somebody wearing Hatchet clothes. Although his shipments stay within the United States, Nick has shipped to places as far as Paris. Hatchet apparel’s fall line comes out next week and features some new designs that Nick drew up himself.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features an 18-foot-tall piece of artwork and how students are paying for college This week on Studio One, find out the unique canvas an artist uses. Also, learn how college students are paying for school.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Artist Katie Lee’s talent was noticed at a young age. Her latest piece is a colorful, creative and impressive 18-foot-tall teepee, but it comes with some challenges. This unique canvas needs a different type of paint and tools, so Katie has avoided traditional paintbrushes. Instead she uses a palette knife and oil paint to decorate the teepee. While art is Katie’s passion, she says it also fulfills her spiritually. “It’s almost like a form of meditation. When you sit in a room and do a constant thing, it’s really soothing, and I feel like it’s healthy for the soul.” Her inspiration has spread across canvases big, small and teepee sized. Renee Nilsen, the University of North Dakota’s Financial Wellness Coordinator, assists students with reaching their financial goals. Renee recognizes that every student has a different financial situation, and her goal is to help each student who walks through the door make a financial plan that works for them. “There are a lot of tough questions and aspects when it comes to paying for college or your loans, but we want students to know that there are options and that we are here to help,” said Renee.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a public address announcer and Multicultural Student Services This week on Studio One, discover the passion and voice behind one man’s job. Also, learn how diversity is embraced on the University of North Dakota’s campus.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Darrin Looker has been the voice of the University of North Dakota’s men’s hockey since 2005 and has loved it since day one. Darrin, a public address announcer, said, “I’ve been a lifelong UND hockey fan, and a lot of people call it a dream job.” Darrin landed the job as a freshman in college. To some this may seem like work, but Darrin has a different perspective. “You may look at it as a job, but at the same time you’re coming to the Ralph basically ‘playing’ Friday and Saturday night during the hockey season.” Malika Carter is the Multicultural Student Services (MSS) Director at the University of North Dakota. The MSS provides quality support in academics, financial aid, personal and social services, which enhance African American, Asian American, and Hispanic American student success at UND. “Multicultural Student Services is an extremely important and vital department because institutions of higher education were not built for domestic persons of color or other underrepresented people,” said Carter.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a new benefit for UND student athletes and the advantages of the Rural Assistance Center This week on Studio One, learn why student athletes will be able to focus more on their studies. Also, find out how rural communities across the nation are becoming more established. GRAND FORKS, N.D. — College as a student athlete tends to be quite different from high school. Some universities understand this and have started implementing programs to help with this transition. Beginning in the 2016-2017 academic year, UND will cover full tuition and room and board to all student athletes on athletic aid. Athletes attend colleges and universities first and foremost to earn a degree, and this decision helps alleviate stress by giving students a sense of financial freedom. UND’s athletic director, Brain Faison, said, "I think it's great for the student athletes because it’s difficult for them to hold down part-time jobs while they're here, and there's some legitimate cost issues for them that I think will now be addressed." The Rural Assistance Center (RAC) is a national rural health and human services information portal. RAC helps rural communities access the full range of available programs, funding, and research that enables them to provide quality health services to their residents. “Communities succeed when they have the right tools to use for their initiatives,” said Kristine Sande, the director of the RAC. Sande feels it is important that a center like this exists for the rural communities around America.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a dog training program and a national aerobatics team member This week on Studio One, find out about the skills and tricks taught at dog obedience classes. Also, learn about a graduate who participated in UND’s Aerobatics Team.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — If you want to teach your furry friends a few more tricks, the Kennel Club in Grand Forks, ND may be the answer. The club has over 15 volunteers who teach classes in agility, obedience and the ever popular puppy kindergarten. Lisa Wiersma, a trainer at the Kennel Club, said, “I do this simply because of the ability for the dogs to learn. It makes me happy to watch them develop and become more of an active dog.” The diverse skills the trainers provide are more than just obedience; some of the classes focus on getting you and your dog ready for competition. Cameron Jaxheimer came to the University of North Dakota from Seattle, Washington, in 2012 for commercial aviation. He was eventually introduced to the UND Aerobatics Team, which represents the University of North Dakota at aerobatic contests across the nation. The team's competitive mindset and devotion to safety and precision flying has led to multiple national collegiate championships. “Aerobatics is sometimes hard to explain, but it’s like gymnastics for the plane. We are given a certain area in the air that we can do our tricks, kind of like a mat in gymnastics, where we then are judged on our precision and turns in a point system,” said Cameron.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a live-action role-playing group and the dangers of stalkers This week on Studio One, discover what LARPing is and how you can get involved. Also, find out ways you can detect if you are being stalked.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Chris Touchtone is a part of Land’s End, a group that gathers on Saturdays to play out medieval battles. “It’s LARPing, live-action role-playing, and my best definition of it would be a bunch of nerds that come out and safely beat each other,” said Touchtone. There are many different types of games they play including kill your killer, rapture battles, and team fights. Some games even require set pieces like axes, daggers, hammers, and spears. Touchtone says all it takes to get started in LARPing is to show up and be ready to have fun. Lieutenant Don Rasmuson has worked for the University of North Dakota as a police officer for 35 years and says that stalking is one of the most unrecognized and under-reported crimes. Stalking is repeated victimization by a perpetrator against a targeted victim, defined partly by the impact it has on the victim and the fear it induces. It is now one of the crimes required to be included in the Annual Security Report. “Once you feel fear, that is a signal to know you are being stalked. Often today people confuse common courtship with stalking, but with new technology and cell phones it is easier for the stalker to find ways to contact you,” said Rasmuson.

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a reading program for elementary students and UND’s new High Performance Center This week on Studio One, learn about an after school program that helps elementary students with their reading. Also, find out about the innovative technology featured in the newest addition to UND’s campus. GRAND FORKS, N.D. — As class sizes grow, a common challenge is keeping valuable one-on-one time between teachers and students in the classroom. Highland Elementary School in Crookston, Minn. has come up with a solution. Teachers have been given 12 weeks to stay after school and help students who are behind in reading.. Small group sessions for students are presented through different forms of media. Some are in print, others are viewed on electronics− a favorite for students. Chris Trostad, the principal of Highland Elementary School, said, “You know, an iPad is a great additional resource, but the thing that matters the most is a good quality teacher who understands students and knows how to resolve the issues that the students have when they struggle.” The University of North Dakota's new High Performance Center is open and has been gaining a lot of attention. This 200,000 square foot facility is home to four sports including football, baseball, soccer, and track and field. The design of the track is made to return the maximum amount of energy to the runner, and uses the same material that will be used on the tracks in the upcoming Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Seth Adkins, a sprinter at UND, said, "Having a good surface to run on is key for any track, so this will help prevent injuries."

University of North Dakota’s award-winning television program features a unique German dish and a woman’s passion for etiquette This week on Studio One, discover a new food that has entered the Grand Forks market. Also, learn about the importance of politeness and manners.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Local baker, Karen Schwandt, is taking a sweet approach to traditional cake, and serving it up in a German way. Karen fell in love with making kuchen, a German cake, and wanted to sell these classic custards to others. "I just lifted up the back of my van where I had my kuchen in coolers, and I sold it out of there. I think I put up a table in the back of the van, and I had it filled to the top with three sets of coolers," said Schwandt. She quickly found out she couldn't keep up with the demand and knew she had to sell her custards through a larger market. Her kuchens have been selling at the Grand Forks Hugo’s grocery store, now, for six years. Mae Marie has a love for being polite and having good manners, and she believes that the way people carry themselves speaks volumes. She started the inaugural UND etiquette dinner in 1980 and still at age 90. “If you’re going into the professional world, you need to know how to act the right way,” said Mae Marie. Mae Marie has even helped edit a book titled Excuse Me, Your Manners are Showing. Many people have recognized the impact that the dinner has had on the community and Mae Marie loves the positive feedback that she receives from students who have benefitted from the dinner.
